Thousands of migrants have risked life and limb by jumping on “The Beast,” the so-called “Death Train” or “La Bestia,” in Southern Mexico to begin what they hope is the final leg of their journey to the U.S.-Mexico border.

SAN DIEGO — Four persons charged with the kidnapping for ransom of a woman in Los Angeles earlier this month have been confirmed as illegal aliens–and one has been confirmed as “arrested and repatriated to Mexico three times since 1999,” including earlier this year, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials confirmed to Breitbart News.

ICE stated that the four (above, and below) are not U.S. citizens, having no “legal basis to be in the U.S.” and told Breitbart News that it “has lodged immigration detainers against all four suspects charged in connection with the kidnapping for ransom incident,” according to a spokesperson.    Continue reading “Alleged L.A.

Charlotte, NC –-(Ammoland.com)- Amicus curiae (“friend of the court”) briefs have been filed in Nojay v. Cuomo, the appeal from the decision of Judge William Skretny last year that largely upheld New York’s Secure Ammunition and Firearms Enforcement (“SAFE”) Act.

The plaintiffs challenged bans on large-capacity magazines and “assault weapons” (as redefined), the requirement that magazines contain no more than seven rounds, and new rules on ammunition sales, as unconstitutional.  After Judge Skretnty denied most of these claims, the case (decided as New York State Rifle and Pistol Association, Inc. v. Cuomo) was appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit.   Continue reading “22 State Attorneys General Join Pro-Second Amendment Brief in NY SAFE Act Appeal”

HOUSTON, Texas — This school year, Texas taxpayers will likely be on the hook for approximately $45 million to educate the wave of Central American children who entered the U.S. illegally during recent months. Thousands of unaccompanied minors are expected to attend Texas public schools this year. Despite this, the Texas Education Agency (TEA) is unable to put plans in place for accommodating the minors–the federal government has not revealed the number of foreign students to expect in each school district.    Continue reading “Feds Won’t Tell Texas School Districts How Many Unaccompanied Minors to Expect”

Here’s an idea for an awesome dogfighting aircraft. Make it small, light, and fast. Build it out of materials that are hard to detect on radar. Even give it a laser cannon.

Oh, and don’t put a human in the cockpit. In fact, don’t even closely tie the drone to human ground control. Because in an aerial knife fight, a computer-controlled machine will beat a human pilot.   Continue reading “This laser-armed drone could blow fighter jets out of the sky”

Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker, like many governors across the nation, was not even notified of these potential plans in July.
